How to Add Friends on Roblox Xbox One Cross Platform

Like most games, Roblox on Xbox does offer you to play with your friends on other platforms. Because of this, you are able to expect to meet tons of friends inside each of the popular games. You will be able to continue playing with your friends by adding them within the game. Of course, it is a different process compared to PC and mobile.

Adding friends in-game

The first thing that you have to do is both of you should be on the same game server, regardless of what platform they are on. So,  as long as you see them in front of you, this should not be an issue. To make sure that you are both on the same server, you need to try to join a game at the same time. Then, you have to press RB next to their character, and a menu should appear after a moment. On the left side of the menu, there is going to be an “add friend” option. A request can be sent from there. If they add you, they are only going to appear on your friends list on the Roblox main menu. When you are adding them via Roblox, they will not appear on your Xbox friends list.

Adding friends who are on Xbox

Apparently, playing with other friends that are also on Xbox is easier. One of you needs to search the other’s gamertag on the Xbox’s Friends tab. After a friend request is accepted, you are easily able to join their game by going into their Xbox profile at any time. Technically, you will not be friends inside of Roblox by doing this, however joining friends’ servers is going to be much less of a hassle.
